I'd rock one at that price without the gills... but I have to wait. Too many other priorities right now. Besides... I had to cut a large amount of my stock hood bracing to make room for my hotside piping. In order to run that hood I'll too a BEGi re-route (planned) and new hotside piping with the turbo clocked down instead of up.

I'm in the same boat as you.In order for that hood to fit,I would either need to re-clock my turbo and run new piping(more money) or I would need to trim the hood at the extraction vent,also I would need to get rid of my cold air box(gotta go no matter which route I go) cause the extraction vent would not clear it.

My erebuni fit good, had to trim the vent though because i have the 1.8, i heared they fit the 1.6's good.
anyone tried the autokonexion on a 1.8 cause it looks just like the erebuni one only with gills
i just dont see why he is asking for 450 when the erebuni hoods were cheaper and it looks the same (sans gills) which is what everyone has been saying, no?
here is mine

i just talked to them, they are going out of business and only sell stuff they show on the site, no miata hood though
so autokonexion probably bought their mold and is now making the hoods himself and selling as his design only with gills, wow

Just to relay information because I've been keeping up with the hood project. He actually took a carbon fiber extraction hood that was messed up when the car was wrecked, cut the extraction part out, molded it to the stock hood, and then molded the gills in. Then he had the hoods molded from that. But alot of people have been asking for the hood without the gills.

The price is actually $320 for fiberglass and $420 for CF, plus shipping, which is where the price can go up.

The fit is actually really good according to a couple of people that bought one and relayed feedback. The main extraction vent is far enough back to fit thick radiators, but far enough forward to cover the front of the engine, unlike 1.8s using an Erebuni hood.

Quite an accusation, considering that he has several photos of the main vent molded into a stock hood, and he's also said that the main delay in making the non-gilled hood will be forming a new mold without the gills.

He didn't accuse anyone or claim any as fact. He supposed a situation based on evidence before him. Stop being a ******* *****
